Day 80– Sep 17, 2005, Saturday: Pack & Pool

Playing in the pool all day makes Jonny a tired boy!

The packing and cleaning has begun. I must say that I am getting the better end of the deal. Ruth is doing about 99% of both while my job is to take the kids to the pool. I am the envy of the neighborhood as a result. On the other hand, Ruth is actually able to get some cleaning and packing done without the two rugrats hindering.

Jonny and I started off the day with a trip to Walmart in the school van. We needed a pill cutter as the kids have to have a quarter of a pill each week for Malaria. After that we boogied back home to jump in the pool. I’m proud to say that we were in the pool nearly half of the day today. We actually went 3 separate times because the meals and naps kept interrupting our swimming.

Tonite we had dinner with our team and then went and practiced a few dramas/skits that we are planning to do on outreach if we have the chance. Then…you guessed it, went to the pool with the team. Jonny loves to dive in the deep end for his toy shark. He can’t quite do it by himself so it’s my full time job to dive with him. We’ll sleep hard tonite!
